[QUOTE="WrenchHead80, post: 128533, member: 17451"] Had to get labs pulled for my regular Defy check-up. So I ran all my thyroid labs to see what my numbers look like being off the NDT now. Notice my TSH has gone up more and so has one of my antibody test ones and RT3. I haven't restarted taking a lower dose (200mcg) of selenium yet since the lab keeps messing up that test. Wanted to confirm my levels came down before starting on 200mcg. For anyone that didn't read it above, the last successful lab of my selenium showed I was over the range (Range 23-190 and I came back HIGH at 332) taking 400mcg a day. I'm starting to think I should just take the 200mcg pill a day and not worry about it? I've dropped my daily supplementing of iron to only one pill a day of ferretts 106mg elemental iron with a vitamin C pill. I'm assuming my iron is no longer considered low? On a side note: I read this thread [URL="https://www.excelmale.com/forum/threads/dhea-levels-and-effects-of-supplementation.12491/"]DHEA and Shortness of breath / Asthma[/URL] and noticed post #3 I'm wondering if my excessive sweating was caused by me supplementing with DHEA and not the NDT? I checked my records and I see I was taking NDT for all most two months with no sweating issue. I started the DHEA (50mg a day) a little over month before I had to stop the NDT because of excessive sweating. I Think it was bad timing that the sweating started at the most humid time of summer here. Even after stopping the NDT the excessive sweating remained for a while though. I dropped my DHEA dose a week after stopping the NDT to 25mg a day after reading here how most don't require so much. The excessive sweating looks like it stopped a few weeks after that but at that time the humidity finally stopped also. Starting to think it was the DHEA. Either way I don't regret getting off the NDT because I don't feel it was working right based on how I felt, what you guys said about my follow up labs and I never had low temps till I started NDT either. I'm assuming my problems with NDT are cortisol related since its the only thing I never had tested. Still not sure what to do. Still thinking about looking into those local Dr's. I'm just so turned off with dr's now since I realize most are clueless with TRT and thyroid stuff. Also decided to stop all DHEA for a few days and see if I feel a + or - difference. [/QUOTE]
